What Is this Disease that Is Coming
UpOn Us

Like a thief at night 1t steals
in upon us unawares, The pa
tents have pain. about the
chest and sides, and sometimes
in the back. They feel dull
and sleepy; the mouth has Il
bad taste, especially in the
morning, A sort o. sticky slime
collects about the teeth. The
appetite is poor. There is a
feeling like a heavy load on the
stomach; sometime faint, all
gone sensation at the pit of the
stomach which food does not
satisfy. The eyes are sunken,
the hands and feet become cold
and clammy. After a while a
cough sets in, at first dry, but
after a few months it is attend,
ed with a greenish-colored ex
pectoration. The patient feels
tired all the while, and sleep
does not seem to afford any
rest. After Il time he becomes
nervous, irritable and gloomy,
and has evil -orebodings. There
is a giddiHess, u sort of whirl-
ing sensation ia the head when
rising up suddenly. The bow
els become costive; the skin is
dry and hot at times; the blood
becomes thick and stagnant;
the whites of the eyes become
tinged with yellow; the urine
is scanty and high colored, de-
posting a sediment after stand
ING. There is frequently a
splitting up of the food, some
times with Il sour taste and
sometimes with a swedish
taste; this is frequently at
tended with palpitation of the
heart; the vision becomes i'm
paired, with spots before the
eyes; there is feeling of great
pr~ostratlon and weakness. All
of these symptoms are in turn
present. 1t is thought that
nearly one-third of our popu-
latlon has this disease in some
Of its varied forms.
1t has been found that ply
sicians have mistaken the cause
Of this disease. Some have
treated it for a liver complaint,
others for kidney disease, ETC.,
etc, but none of these kinds of
treatment have been attended
with success; for it is really
constipation and dyspepsia. 1t
is also found that Shaker Ex-
tract Of Roots, or Mother Sci
gels Curative Syrup, when
properly prepared will remove
this disease in all its stages.
Care must be taken; however,
to secure the genuine article.
IT WILL SELL BETTER THAN
COTTON.
Mr.. John c.. Hemptinstall,
Of Chuiafrmee, Cleburn Co.,
Ala, writes: "My wife has
been so much benefited by
Shaker Extract of Roots or
5eigel's Syrup that she says
she would rather be without
part of her food than without
the medicine. 1t has done her
more good than the doctors and
allother medicines put together.
| would ride twenty miles to
ct it into the hands of any suf-
.erer if he can get it in no other
way. | believe it will soon sellin
this State better than cotton.
TESTIMONY FROM TEXAS.
Mrs. Sc. Barton, of Warner,
Ripley Co., No, writes that
she had been long afflicted with
dyspepsia and disease of the
urinary organs and was cured
by Shakur Extract of Roots.
Rev. J. }. Mcclure, merchant,
of the same place, who sold
Mrs, Barton the medicine, says
he has sold it for four years
and never knew it to fail,
SHE WAS ALMOST DEAD
l was SO low with dyspep-
sia that thee was not a ply
stefan to ~ forud who could
do anything W.h me. l had
futtering Of ihe heart and
swimming Of ,he head. One
day | read you} pamphlet called

which described my disease
better than ! could myself. |
